On his attack on diesel-guzzling cars like sports utility vehicles (SUVs), Environment Minister Jairam Ramesh today asked the users of such cars to pay full market price for the fossil fuel which is being sold at subsidised rates for farmers.
"Why should they get subsidised fuel meant for farmers," Ramesh asked while speaking at a conference on 5th Sustainability Summit organised by CII.
"We introduce the (diesel) subsidy for a certain economic purposes but have ended up with a wholly different purpose...," he said while favouring incentives to the firms aiming at sustainable development.
What d Hell is wrong with these minister they very well know the fact that the main reason people buy a diesel cars is the price of diesel .Now they are making these kind of comments

is it true that an automatic gears do not reveal or hinder the performance in terms of power and wat is the difference b/w a normal AT gearbox and a DSG gearbox ???how come that most of the top speed cars lay importance on AT gearbox rather than manual ??????

i am presently looking to buy a car in the range of 6-8 lacs my monthly run would be around 1200-1400 km and a big tour to ladakh or goa evry Quarter or so
as i am the only one to use the car in the family i am highly confused as to which would be the best car for me that would have power as well not good but decent mileage to drive around . maintenance is also an issue as i don't want my car lying in the workshop after a long tour or so .i have no clue abt any of the cars .
Thank you

@sarab these trips of ladakh or goa are made once in a year or two although ihave taken my bike to ladakh and i know it's a paradise in hell bt stil i think a non 4x4 car make it in once in a year or two!!!

Why is that there is more preferences given on turbo in only diesel car and not in petrol car and why so much preferences are on mid range torque and high range torque only in diesel car ? are these diesel engines give output in a different way?BornFree2010-11-11 05:42:37

Wouldn't an SUV be a too much to ask for given the thought I am a 22 years old and a newcomer in driving!
